My last grep statement is not working?

 Script_Dir-"/home/andy/bin/"
 read -p "Enter text to search for : " n1
 #grep -i $n1 /home/andy/bin/*.sh  # -i MEANS CASE INSENSITIVE
 grep -i $n1 $Script_Dir*.sh

Hello,

This is working well for me.
The only trouble I had was with the first line Script_Dir- with Script_Dir=

Script_Dir="/home/andy/bin/"

Grep will report an error grep: $Script_Dir/*.sh: No such file or directory if there is no .sh file in your folder.

Kr,

Thanks.

I did not notice the - instead of =.
